Sturdy no glue fold flat giftbox.

Pretty boxes for pretty things are one of my favourite things to craft. I love unusual types and ones which are fold flat boxes perfect for easy storage until they are needed. Today I am sharing my latest such box and showing you how to make one of these at home.

When complete this useful pretty hand made gift box measures 2 3/8" x 2 1/4" x 2" or  approximately 6cm x 5.7cm x 5cm. Constructed simply from white card layered with panels of Petal Pink card stock and Twinkle Twinkle Designer Series paper. The subtle colours in the papers are mimicked in the Petal pink and white variegated ribbon and the pretty sentiment stamped in Petal Pink ink. The sentiment comes from the A good day Stamp set and the punched shapes which hold it are scalloped circle punches...I will leave links to everything below.

I do have a full step by step easy to follow YouTube tutorial for you to follow. So sit back with a warm cuppa and enjoy the video. Or grab your supplies.. measurements are below and come craft with me.

Happy stamping x Amanda
